Do you believe the husband should have the final say in marriage decisions?

Since two people can make decisions that cancel out each other, there must always be one who has the final say. The bible says this is the husband (as long as the decision isn't to commit a sin).Do you believe the husband should have the final say in marriage decisions?
yes














mark kDo you believe the husband should have the final say in marriage decisions?
The bible also says that a slave should obey his master. Should he or shouldn't he? We live in different times my friend. The bible also says that a man should love his wife as Christ loved the church. If a man is expecting obedience without giving his wife unconditional love then how can a woman obey him? Everything must be taken into context. Compromise is what works these days.
Ummm gee let me think. You are ok with me paying half the bills, getting to orgasum half as often as you and doing all the house work. I think I probley deserve at least equal say.


As it has been explained to me it isn't that the husband always has final say. The husband isn't Lord and master. God made woman from a man's rib so she would always be near his heart.


It is more...';hey honey listen...there is a tiger in the back yard. He looks hungry and I think he might eat you or the kids so you stay here Iam going to go fight him...with a stick';


That women are suppose to listen to. A penis isn't a magic wand that gives correct responses. If it was my EX husband would have had the correct answer to questions like ';should I run up my wife's visa?'; '; Is it ok for me to sleep with the neighbor girl?' and many many others. Thanks for sharing. NEXT CALLER we are talking to Bob from Minnesota.
I think it really depends on how important it is. If its whats for dinner, or something lame one of the people in the marriage shouldn't be petty and just give in. If its going to be something serious, there needs to be a compromise.
Nope. I believe that a husband and wife are a team, neither one superior to the other at all. They can work things out and find a way that they are both happy with the decision.
No I don't think so but it doesn't matter I will never get married because it's a load of crap. I am fine on my own. I own everything I need and I have an amazing career I don't need a man living off me.



wait, where does the bible say that? can u find it for me and show me? i do NOT think that the guy should have the final say. u gotta give a little to get a little. COMPROMISE!





hahahaha! u have 22 points! thats hilarious!!!! hehe, im jk :D ily %26lt;333
No....in my marriage we're each better at different things.





So we let the person who knows the most about that particular thing have the final say.





Marriage should be equal.....and I don't believe in the Bible
Both parties should be involved in the decision process.
He can have the final say, but compromise goes a long ways towards making a healthy partnership.



no, sometimes he can be a dumass and not have the smartest decisions lol


its true though.


some men just lack common sence lol


I said it depends on the decision thats being made.
depends... the most logical thing would be to let the one with the best judgement have the final word
no, mutual agreement!
only if he likes sleeping on the couch. After a while he might end up half his stuff.
no, it should be a split decision.
Not in my house. I always have the final say.
No, I think there is always a compromise.
No. Ever heard of compromise? Yeah..really..that's something people do when both parties are in disagreement.
No i do not
Yes
This is gonna be some fun readin.....
Ye I agree with the bible while being a woman ..
lol I'm going to wet myself.

A married woman whose husband is recovering from cancer wants me to impregnate her. What should I do?

I know this is a very rare question but it is real. The woman says she will raise the kid in her family and that no one will know about it. She loves her husband but due to the sickness and recovery he is not capable to father a baby. I was shocked at the beginning when I as offered this unsual deal. I am single guy, had girlfriends but no kids. I am not sure about the legal consequences either though she says everything will be taken care of. Any suggestions and thoughts?A married woman whose husband is recovering from cancer wants me to impregnate her. What should I do?
Child support. Plain and simple. Regardless of any promises or claims she (or her spouse) may make the State doesn't negotiate or take in to account ANY sort of ';arrangements'; to avoid child support obligations. They can and will garnish up to 50% of your income to support the child. Don't do it. Save this special ability to conceive for when you are ready to be a parent on your own.





During such an emotional and stressful time in her life ~ wanting to conceive is the last thing she should be concerning herself with!





It sounds as if she doesn't want to disclose to her spouse that the baby isn't his ~ dishonesty this blatant is a definite RED FLAG.





My opinion: Steer clear!A married woman whose husband is recovering from cancer wants me to impregnate her. What should I do?
Don't you think this sounds shady? If the woman would not tell her husband, she is not an open and honest person. Would you want a dishonest person raising YOUR child? YOUR ONLY child???
WHOA WHOA WHOA WHOA!,NO NO NO NO!...DONT DO IT MAN IT WILL HURT LATER! THAT DONT SOUND LIKE THE RIGHT THING TO DO
If you want to help (and you seriously need to think about this), you need to get a legal document prepared stating that you are in no way responsible for the child. If her husband dies, she might go after you for child support, no matter how good of a friend you are. Just remember, you may feel an emotional bond with this baby knowing it's yours, and you need to be sure you can keep your distance.
are you people serious? you just wanna make ';cheating'; a something easy to do without having any morals ';take a lawyer with you??!!!';..... what the...??, and if she really love her husband or whatever, she won't even think about such a thing. And shame on you man to have a relation with a married woman what is gonna be your feelings if you were in her husband's shoes and you wanna take our opinion about this? what is the wrong with you???!!
I would definitely get a lawyer involved just to be safe. Also, only if the husband is aware and agrees to it.








You don't want to get stuck with child support!!!
Don't do it! she might put child support on you
make sure a lawyer is involved... it can be handled as a sperm donation....

  • Anyone got any creative ideas on how I can tell my husband I am pregnant?

    I just found out that I am pregnant with our second child. My daughter will be turning one at the end of July. Anyone got any creative ideas on how I can tell my hubby tonight?Anyone got any creative ideas on how I can tell my husband I am pregnant?
    My cousin take a test then put in a small box wit a bow. When u opened it he was surprised.Anyone got any creative ideas on how I can tell my husband I am pregnant?
    Place another chair at the dinner table with a stuffed pink/blue animal in it and a child's plate, cup, spoon. In the plate, put a name tag that says, ';Guest arriving in 8/9 months';.
    Make a shirt for your daughter that says ';I'm going to be a big Sister';. Or you can get him a few baby ting and put them in a cute bag and on the label put ';You are going to be a daddy again';
    Make him a dinner with things like baby carrots, baby corn, baby back ribs, Maybe he will get the connection. Congrats and Good Luck
    gift wrap a pacifier with a brand new rattle and set it on his pillow, or in his car b4 he goes to work.





    memma96's idea about the baby carrots, spinach, etc is really cute. only my b/f would never get it. he does not think when he eats....lol





    congrats.
    Say 'You know how the average family has 2.4 children and we are 5/12ths there? Well in a few months time we'll be 10/12ths there.'
    Congratulations! When I got pregnat with our second child, I got a plain white shirt for my son and wrote, in huge colourful letters, ';I'm gonna be a Big Brother'; on it and let my hubby figure it out for himself! It worked very very well!
    i have no ideas, personally,


    BUT i love the idea of your daughter wearing the ';big sister'; t-shirt and the ';baby'; themed dinner. of course, you'll give him some wine, but none for you.....





    or you could play charades...that could be fun....
    Everyone here gave you some really cute ideas. The T-shirt. Etc. For our Second Child My wife did this. She got a card that read Happy Fathers Day. My wife had found out she was pregnant in August which meant Fathers day had passed about 2 months prior to that.





    On the inside of the card it read. Dear Daddy, you will not meet me for about 7 months yet, but I wanted to tell you I was so happy when the Angel in Charge of us little Cerubs told me I was going to be your little girl. I love you ......Baby Girl





    One other thing you might want to be aware of, My wife knew it was a girl from the moment of conception. I don't know how but she knew. By the way, my Baby Girl is now 25 years old and owns her own business.
    I told my husband that he had a designated driver for nine months.
    Ha ha, my partner nearly died of a heart attack in the pub when I told him. We'd only been trying a few weeks, everybody knew we were trying. We went to the pub one nigt with all our friends, there was about 8 of us stood at the bar and he turned round and said 'What are you having?' I couldn't resist and said'A baby'. The look on his face was a picture. Karen McDonald did the same thing to Steve in Coronation Street.
    I left the pt test in the bathroom on the counter in plain sight and told him to go get something from in their that was near it... he then came out w/ what i sent him for and acted as though he hadnt seen it all the way up to till we went to bed then he asked me whos it was.. i said it was the dogs due to the fact my dog is the only female in the house.. he got all excited and caught on.. but he didnt want to seem dum...





    i told him this last time by buying a cake and having them write Daddy acrossed it with lil ballons.. and baby dec.


    you can do the same.. and write soon to be daddy 2 num. 2... or even make one yourself... this one he caught on easily...
    Aww! Congrats! I've always wanted to do something like this. Since you already have a little one, why don't you have her tell him. Go to Hallmark and find a card for expecting fathers and take a picture of the pregnancy test. Place the picture in the card. Lastly, get your daughter one of those ';Big Sister'; tee-shirts to wear when she presents it to him when he least expects it. Good luck!
    have a candle-lit dinner with baby carrots, baby spinach, baby ribs, ect. he should figure it out on his own if you do that
    Best way I can think of is a great home cooked meal for him. With a baby theme, baby carrots, baby back ribs, and so forth it will put a fun spin on dinner and make a good guessing game for you husband.

    Do you and your husband share email passwords with each other?

    i.e. does your husband know your email password and do you know his?





    do you think this is necessary?Do you and your husband share email passwords with each other?
    if he asked for it...I wouldnt have a problem giving it to him....I have nothing to hide.....but I dont feel that it is necessary cheers : )Do you and your husband share email passwords with each other?
    yeah. in fact there is a paper sitting next to the computer that has both our passwords and my passwords for other stuff. - i'd forget them if i didn't write them down. it isn't a big deal it's not like we snoop on each other. we also look at each others phones. -in front of each other- we look at the forwards we get from people because they are funny. it's not about snooping. we trust each other and have nothing to hide so what is the big deal?





    edit:i'm really suprised how many couples don't share this info with eachother. i thought everyone did i didn't realize so many people thought it was a trust or privacy thing.my husband has even looked at my Y!A profile out of curiousity and that didn't bother me at all and that was more personal than my email which is just full of junk.
    We use the same password for our personal email accounts. We have access to each other's email, in the event we need to be in the account, but neither of us really bother to look at each other's email. There is nothing to hide, so we just thought it easier to have the same password. A decision made nine years ago when we got married.
    No we do not know each others email passwords. I think I have told him mine, but that was to access bills online. I trust my husband totally and have no need to know his passwords. If I asked he would tell me and it would be no big deal. From our first time talked we made a promise to always be totally honest, we still are to this day.
    Yes, he knows mine and I know his. No, I do not think it is necessary. I only have his because a few years ago he needed some info in an e-mail and he was not anywhere that had internet access. He knows mine because I have a post-it on my monitor.
    No because we are not tied at the hip and people need to have something of their own even if they are married. Note: If you don't have trust, you have nothing.
    Nope - I am a computer genius - nothing is hidden from me, except for what is in plain sight, and the fact that my children are of a different colour to me.





    What are you saying?
    My husband watches everything I do :) :) :)
    hell yea! I report to him every second of every day of my life. I can't even take a shiit without informing him of it.





    Seriously, seek a marriage councilor
    No we don't. Nor do we read each others mail. I do however insist on knowing (I've not yet felt I had to use)passwords of my minor children.
    We have a joint email and myspace. Its is boh of ours so yes we both have the passwords.
    Hell no! I do not want him knowing about all the other dudes I cam with.
    no





    unless I think there is something going on (cheating)

    What happens If my Husband joins the army and dies. Do me and our kids get any help?

    my husband wants to join an says that if he dies we will be taken care of. an hes convinced that he wont be sent to the war but is that true? Does he have to be in the army a certain amount of time before he gets benefits? and does he start getting paid immediately? i know that a alot of men and women want to fight for the country an i support them i just dont know how i feel about him doing that now that we have to small children..One last question how long do you have to enlist for?What happens If my Husband joins the army and dies. Do me and our kids get any help?
    He's right. You will be taken care of, maybe not the best at times but is something to lean on. Be sure you read all the fine print.What happens If my Husband joins the army and dies. Do me and our kids get any help?
    Heck they don't even take care of you before you die, why do you think it would be different after he is gone (God forbid). If he is seriously injured (physically or mentally) his care will be minimal.





    Tell him to find another occupation other than killing people and putting himself in harms way. He should have done this before he married you and had dependents if that was his hearts desire.
    During boot camp, you will not receive money, you get those checks at the end. Benefits are great, start somewhere in the mid of boot camp. If he goes to war (probably will), and dies, you will receive $250,000.00 and benefits for the rest of your life. Hope that helps.
    benfits kick in immediately, he probably will be shipped off, the army lie to you to get you join. i wouldnt do it
    enlistment is usually 3 years


    Death benefits are normally around $400,000


    he does get paid, but wont recieve anything till after basic training. Bennifits are from swearing in on.
    I'm sorry your husband wants to run off on you. But yes he is right, if he dies you and your children will be set for life. You enlist for life.
    All of these people that answered you are all a little right. But not totally. Yes the day you go to boot camp your benefits start. You start getting paid immediately. But in boot camp what do you need money for? so they dont give you an account til about half way through. Life insurance coverage is 400,000 dollars only while you are deployed to a combat zoone. i,e, iraq. and 250,000 back in the states. You should let him do it but ask him to pick a MOS that is not infantry. Something like motor T or avionics or even admin. Just for at least 4 years. If he gets out it will be such an honor. He will get support and benefits from every angle. If he gets hurt while he is in then when he gets out he can and will get paid for life. I got out of the Marines and said I had ringing in my ears(true) about 2 times a week. Also I have a few sunspots on my skin. I know get a check for 650.00 every month til I die. Imagine if you loose a leg! Just stand by his side you have to be strong.
    You deserve an honest answer. No matter what the benefits/insurance, you are NOT set for life! 250,000.00 goes NO WHERE today. And that is if he is killed....more likely, if he is hit, he will be maimed, and the army does NOT take care of their own. If he sustains a head injury, he could be a helpless vegetable for the rest of his life, and the army has a great way of treating those wounded..they deny all responsibility! This is NOT one of his wiser decisions ! With the way the Army is treating veterans, I wouldn't enlist for anything! And he can sign up for 4 years, but that does NOT mean he will get out in 4 years...once in, they can keep you for as long as they want!
    Kind of a crazy question!?!?





    Yea, you are set if (God forbid) he dies at war. The amount depends on what he has as life insurance and other choices he has made.





    You don't get paid till half way through boot camp, the other girl is right. They can send him to war when they want to. After boot camp and the 3 month mobilization time, he is fair game.





    You usually enlist for 4 years, but most re-enlist with a bonus and it goes on from there.





    Being an Army wife has its benefits, but as a Army wife with a husband in Iraq for the 2nd time, I can tell you it is not easy. Girl, if I could only tell you how not easy it is.

    Is it possible to have twins when neither you or your husband was one yourselves?

    I'm no where near getting married or having kids, but I have always dreamed that when I do, I would have twins. I dont have a twin and if my future husband doesnt either, is it possible to have that?Is it possible to have twins when neither you or your husband was one yourselves?
    Twins are born to non-twin parents all the time.





    There are artificial ways of increasing the odds of having twins.Is it possible to have twins when neither you or your husband was one yourselves?
    Yes. It has nothing to do with this kind of history.





    Also note that there are two kinds of twins: identical and non-identical. This is in fact additional info not related to your question, but it should help to show that the answer to the question is more complicated in case you want to do additional research.





    An interesting site with anecdotal info is here:


    http://www.keepkidshealthy.com/twins/twi鈥?/a>
    yes of course it is usually people that have twins are not even a twin theirselves it doesnt even have to run in your family it all depends on the way your body reacts to your husbands spirm
    anything could happen!





    Remember miracles happen everyday!
    Yep! While coming from a family with a history of twins does increase your chances of having twins, it is possible for people without that genetic tendency to produce twins too. Identical twins happen when a fertilized egg divides into two separate embryos; Fraternal twins happen when at ovulation the mother releases two eggs from her ovaries instead of one.
    yes that can happen my grandmother had a set of twins it competely skipped a generation and my aunt that was a twin didnt even have twins her brother did there are two types of twins faternal and identical as were my aunt was an identical twin her brother my uncles two were faternal a boy and a girl
    yes if it is in your genes. Does he or you have a seviral biological family members or relatives who have a twins? if the ans is yes then it is possible because one of you has the genes needed for you to have a twince.
    Sometimes it can run in the family, my great grandmother was a twin. And she had twins her first time pregnant, unfotunetly they both died. Her second time pregnant she had twins again, but onhly one lived, and her third time she had twins again, but again only one lived. Before her there were a lot of twins in the family but there haven't been any since then. I hope i'm not the one to pick up the trait again!
